ἔτι μέντοι τῶν διδόντων ἀστέρων, ἐὰν μὲν καλῶς κατὰ τὸ κοσμικὸν τυγχάνωσι διακείμενοι, εὐσχήμονας καὶ ἐνδόξους ἡγητέον τοὺς διδομένους ἀδελφούς, ἐὰν δὲ ἐναντίως ταπεινοὺς καὶ ἀνεπιφάντους, ἐὰν δὲ καθυπερτερήσωσι τοὺς διδόντας ἢ ἐπανενεχθῶσιν αὐτοῖς οἱ κακοποιοὶ καὶ ὀλιγοχρονίους· δώσουσι δὲ τοὺς μὲν ἄρρενας οἱ κοσμικῶς ἠρρενωμένοι, τὰς δὲ θηλείας οἱ τεθηλυσμένοι, καὶ πάλιν τοὺς μὲν πρώτους οἱ ἀπηλιωτικώτεροι τοὺς δὲ ὑστέρους οἱ λιβικώτεροι.
